Parkinson's Patter - 'The only thing we learn from history, is that we don't learn from history'
On Sunday the 1st of March things were relatively ok, yes it was wet through outside, but the green shoots of spring were making themselves known. The grass was growing and the sheep were showing signs of overcoming their expensive hay addiction they had owned since November.
